The cajamarquino carnival is known in all Peru. The celebration
carefully is prepared by all the town, that dedicates itself to
prepare its disguises with months of anticipation. During the
festividad, it is chosen to the queen of the carnival between
the beautiful representatives of the diverse districts. The queen
heads the privateering of allegorical cars by the city. The celebrations
are accompanied by a war of water globes of which nobody is saved.
From old, it is used perfumed water, perforated paper and serpentines.
Nowadays, they have become current, lamentably, the use of bitumen
and painting, that dim the celebrations.
